Q: How do I layer necklaces?

Choose similar, delicate pieces of varying lengths. Prelayered sets like this, a hot trend, take out all the guess work.

Q: How can I wear statement jewelry without looking like Mr. T?

If you're doing a dramatic necklace, pair it with a cocktail ring, not "notice me" earrings.
